Initial release
Snipext launches on the Chrome Web Store
A local-first browser clipper that keeps every highlight, tag, and note on your own device — no account, no server, no trade-off in features.
- Highlight any text on any webpage and save it with one click
- Local-first — all data stored privately in your browser. No accounts, no servers.
- Tag your highlights and filter by tag
- Search across all saved snippets
- Edit and remove tags on any card
- Copy any snippet as Markdown
- Export all snippets as JSON or Markdown
- Import JSON exports — merges with existing data, no duplicates
- GitHub Gist sync — push and pull your highlights across devices using your own private Gist
- Soft delete with tombstone propagation — deletions sync to other devices
- Options page for GitHub token, Gist ID, and sync settings
- Context menu snipping mode — right-click to snip instead of using the selection overlay
